Ok, now i understand what is meant by "optional" in the development section
on the website. That was a bit misleading to me.
Thanks for clarification

I think you need qscintilla anyway, but you have two options:
1. Have all qscintilla libs built into TOra (which will use QScintilla
code included in TOra trunk).
2. Use external qscintilla libs (for both build and runtime). You will
need qscintilla-dev packages on your system.
That is you cannot build TOra without any QScintilla.

As i do not use cmake, i tried to set the environment variable for the
compiler like this CXXFLAGS=-DWANT_INTERNAL_QSCINTILLA=1. But that did not
help. The configure script still exits with an error message that it is not
able to find qscintilla.
Thanks for the hint anyway

Hi,
the development section of the TORA-SQL website at
http://torasql.com/Development claims that the QScintilla2 library is an
optional requirement for building. But i am not able to build without
qscintilla.
I tried the configure option "--without-qscintilla", but the configure
script does still complain about missing qscintilla requirements.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I have recently found Tora and am very happy about it. This is editor I always
wanted... a very big thanks to all the developers of Tora.
I have installed Tora (from source build # 3672) on my openSUSE 11.3 having
mysql and oracle 11gR1. When I try to auto complete table name using CTRL-T it
just swaps the the current line with the line above it. Table name does not
complete. Is there some other key mapping for completing DB object names?
Also, is there functionality in Tora to autocomplete keywords without typing
CTRL-Space like it does in PL/SQL Developer. And can I reformat/beautify code
in Tora (capitalize keywords, make indents)?
I hope Tora grows and becomes the best editor for DB programming and
administration.
Thanks,
Vivek Bhat

Hi,
I have been an off and on user of tora for 8 years. I greatly appreciate
the work you do on it. I'm now on a new machine and attempted to connect to
mysql using tora, but am not finding the mysql option in the drop down in
the "new connection" dialog
I downloaded the zip package here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/tora/
unzipped it and ran tora.exe. Is that all I have to do? I see the file
qsqlmysqld4.dll in that directory. Is it possible windows is using a
different version of qt? Any ideas how I can get mysql support on tora?
Thanks,
Ben Anderson

try to switch to "HD" to see more details
sent to qscintilla upstream to discuss it...

Sure. That is reason why I started working on alternative
OCI wrapper library. OTL has support for collection of
numbers and varchars. In trotl library I've support
for SYS.XMLTYPE and initial support for ANYDATA.
Trotl library is easily extensible for other types,
but toQValue is not. So I'm looking for some way
how to store these types inside toQValue.
Now all the DB vendor specific "knowledge" is hidden
in connection provider's code and the rest of the application
is trying to be universal and DB independent.
I hope that these changes will be useful for other databases.
I guess that PostgreSQL has even more datatypes that Oracle.

PS:
I forgot to mention something in previous email.
There are two possible ways distinguish complex types in resultModel
and in other higher level classes:
- use only virtual methods from the class complexType and not use any
dynamic casting. Now I'm using this approach.
- register each subclass of complexType using Q_DECLARE_METATYPE.
This will assign unique numeric id to each type. This ID can be queried
by calling toQValue.Value.userType().
